Circuit Description
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor is a negative coefficient thermistor within Transmission Fluid Pressure (TFP) manual valve position switch. TFP is also referred to as Pressure Switch Assembly (PSA). TFT sensor controls signal voltage from PCM. The PCM provides a 5-volt reference to sensor on TFT sensor signal circuit. When transmission fluid is cold, sensor resistance is high, and PCM detects high signal voltage. As transmission fluid temperature increases, sensor resistance decreases and voltage decreases. Check sensor for shifted calibration. (Схема №57) DTC P0713 is set if PCM detects a continuous open or short to voltage in TFT sensor signal circuit or TFT sensor.
